EAEU creates common market for organic products

The countries of the Eurasian Economic Union will form a common market for organic products. In a world where the standardization of agricultural products is on the rise, the issue of certification arises. To address this challenge and meet the growing demand for organic products, a regulatory framework is being established.  Notably, the roadmap for creating a common market was approved three years ago by the heads of government of the EAEU member states. As part of its implementation, a draft agreement on the recognition of organic products within the Union has been developed. Once the document is adopted, producers will be able to obtain certificates confirming that their products meet established standards. This will ensure free trade in organic products between the EAEU countries with a population of 185 million people. For Kazakh entrepreneurs, it will open new opportunities for the supply of organic products, as well as increase export potential and strengthen Kazakhstan's position in the international arena.
